Facts about video EEG at home testing

Is It Always a 72 Hour EEG Test?

The typical duration of a video EEG at home test is 72 hours. Your doctor will prescribe the testing duration based on your symptoms, which will give us the highest probability of capturing an event during the recording session. Our team will set up the video EEG at home test and monitor the test to ensure the quality and accuracy of your results. For patients requiring service immediately, Alliance can often accommodate the same or next-day appointments.

What is video EEG monitoring (VEEG)?

An EEG records the electrical activity of your brain, also known as brainwaves. Video EEG monitoring records a video of what your body is also doing during the home EEG test. A doctor will look at the video and the test results together. These two pieces of information help your doctor determine if your seizure or symptom was related to the electrical activity in your brain. Video EEG monitoring is considered the gold standard for diagnosing seizures and symptoms. It allows your doctor to see any type of event or symptom that happens while you conduct your normal daily activities and sleep. At Alliance, we strive to be the gold standard for video EEG at home testing.

How to prepare for your video EEG at home test

STEP - BY - STEP

Shower or bathe the night before. Be sure to wash your hair. Remember, this may be a 72 hour EEG test or more, and you won’t be able to bathe until it’s complete. Do not use any type of hair or scalp conditioner or hairstyling products, including gel, mousse, oils or hairspray. Hair pieces or braids should be removed from the scalp prior to the test.

Wear a front-opening shirt such as a button-down or zipper. Doing so will make changing your clothes easier during the test.

Day of Study

A highly-trained technician will arrive at your home to set-up the test and video EEG monitoring equipment.

During Study
